“…In order to help pilots understand the status of their aircraft, to improve their "Situation awareness," it is necessary to display only the information they need in ways that can be accessed through natural behavior such as looking or pointing, and to alert them when they need to attend to critical information [60]. The study of pilot perception and cognition plays an important role in improving situation awareness [61].…”

Recent developments in computer technology make it possible to use sound more extensively in the computer interface than has hitherto been possible. This article describes research on uses of computer sound and suggests how sound might be used effectively by instructional and interface designers. After a review of some general principles of interface design and of basic research into auditory perception, the article examines two uses of sound Earcons, whose purpose is to inform the user about the state of the system itself, and sonitization, whose purpose is to represent data generated by computer programs as sound. Both symbolic and iconic sounds are examined. The role of sound in virtual environments is also discussed with particular attention to its use in aircraft. Design guidelines are listed, and conclusions about needed research are offered.
